Now now, you can’t tell just from her legs.
That don’t look like Santa Claus to me! She’s also a few days late.
They locked themselves out and figured if Santa can get down the chimney, why can’t I?
They were not aware that there was a step over the flue.
That is creepy.
No but some do win the “Hide and seek” contest when someone finds them a few weeks/months/years later. (^;
LOL, I didn't mean you! I meant idiots who try to crawl down the things. Actually, I was thinking of the damper anyway, because flues come with dampers for as long as I remember.
LOL, peace out!

Woodcrest be nice houses.
We all just know that drugs are somehow involved in all of this.

There’s a lot of it going around. Does anyone ever actually get in that way?

With a flue shot. ;)
Horrible story. If the building was a grocery store why didn’t anyone notice the smell of the dead body? Even if the bottom of the chimney was bricked up the smell would have been all around the building it seems to me.
It is pretty much a right of passage, Most of us survive this period of our lives by the grace of God.
Nearly all of us at that age are blissfully unaware of our mortality. This fact is often utilized by generals and despots to send teenagers to war.
